I think this Card will be playable. But I also have the Impression that this Card is overestimated. Again, many people judge it by the best outcome when it is insane. I don't think it is as easy to upgrade as many seem to think. Sure, if you have it in your Hand from the start and have a good curve, it will be upgraded pretty soon. But if you have it in your hand from the beginning, you might not have a good curve. Moreover, if you topdeck it at the end, Lesser Ruby Spellstone is a way worse Babbling Book . Double the price and no body for a random spell. 2 mana for 2 random spells sounds okay, but not really good either. It's a random draw, which is worse than Arcane Intellect , but it generates value. Fully upgraded this is very good (Cabalist's tome for 2 mana; no need to say more).
I voted playable because I think an Elemental mage might be Tier 3 or 2 . In other decks it depends whether the 1 time upgraded Version is valuable enough to risk topdecking a bad spell. Which I think it is not.
Shame about the at a little though as it does not change when upgraded.
i guess its a hearthpwn recreation of the cards. maybe they don't have official pics yet. at least i hope so, cause all other spellstones have changing art for every upgrade.

Cheaper/ lesser Primordial Glyph but a better Cabalist's Tome. Man they keep helping out quest mage... boring but playable. Oh and its a rare not epic... so better dust value (if one cares about such things)
Interesting. I can't see elemental quest mage being great, maybe you just put this in elemental mage, but honestly I think not - I think you'd rather have more space for elementals and specific removal spells.

Elemental quest mage. Neat idea. You do not Keep the quest in your Mulligan and play a normal game. Two of Ruby Spellstone , two Primordial Glyph and two Steam Surger might be enough to get the quest done. No Exodia, but also a minion based deck is really happy about a second turn.

That is right. There are often several updated versions made as translations and tokens are confirmed etc. If anyone finds the art, the cards will usually be updated within minutes.
Really good, i mean Elemental Mage is a thing, with Frost Lich Jayna and Pyros, just with 2 plays of him and you got a nice 2 mana 2 random cards, which is good considering that Cabalist Tome is 5 mana 3 random and Prymordial Glyph is 2 mana 1 discover with a discount, 2 random spells should be around 2.5-3 mana; 2 mana 3 random is just plain good.
Only takes 4 elements and it’s 3 mana less than cabalist tome. Wonr replace it in quest mage but you could see this ina new mage deck like a midrange/control elemental mage

So now we're just missing an OP Paladin legend, Support for Discard Warlock, an OP arena common and a Meme Rogue weapon synergy card. Blizz is checking all the dots
I disagree, its requirement doesn't fit the theme, I mean, if you are playing elementals, you are playing some kind of a curve deck, topped by the DK, which doesn't need random spells.
This card would be pretty good with Antonidas, thinking there are a bunch of cheap spells you can get, and the spellstone itself is 2 mana. Though playing Antonidas in an elemental deck doesn't seem to be a good idea.
None of the cards so far, for mage, fit together. Its a total clown fiesta

I think that in an Elemental mage you will consistently upgrade it 2 times. And getting three Cards for 2 mana is a very good effect. Even if you don't need it, I think it will be better than other Cards in an Elemental mage. I'd Play it over Babbling Book for instance.
But I agree that it isn't the best spellstone so far. My favorite is Druid.
Hmmm Cabalist tome just like it would be dropped from Unstable portal? I think I will take it muhahahah.
Requirment - Put 2 FirePoopFlies into your deck and play them when the card arrives ._.
That card is broken, especially for Quest Mage, I say Quest mage 2017(end) and 2018 are broken decks from now on <3
I am not sure about that. Which four cards would you cut for two Fire Fly and two Ruby Spellstone in a quest mage? Maybe babbling book, but the spellstone is more expensive (less flexible) and doesn't give you a Body to ping something and is not consistently giving you more spells. And fire fly is just a card that doesn't do anything without the spellstone. And if there is something quest mage doesn't want to have in Hand, it is dead cards that block space.

Eat grass, Smoke A$$
The best artifact so far...
Pretty good card, even when you only get to upgrade it once and Cabalist's Tome will rotate in a few months so I think it's a decent replacement.
Just what we needed, more random spell generation for Mage.

good card, but the art is the same for all three tokens... kinda lazy.
